Sure, but I would expect at least removal of the older source package from unstable first, or explicit consent from the previous maintainer to the overtake.

I pushed the changes to debcargo-conf's current packaging of usvg/resvg needed to build the binaries to my personal repo: https://salsa.debian.org/NoisyCoil/debcargo-conf/-/commits/usvg-resvg. As far as the binaries are concerned, packaging-wise, only the manpages are missing (and proper d/changelog entries). C-library packages are not included as they are not built by neither package (nor they could be within debcargo-conf IIUC). Still, as I've already expressed in my last emails, I am not interested in maintaining the binaries. If Andrej, or tarzeau (both in cc), or really anyone else, is interested in doing so, they can just signal their interest and I'll add them to the Uploaders, add the manpages and re-upload the packages (again, through to my sponsor). Otherwise I see no value in re-uploading packages no-one is actually interested in maintaining, all the more if they were already removed from testing.
